These points can be used for placing glyphs or vectors.
- Parameters:
- Returns:
pyvista.PolyData

Examples
>>> import pyvista >>> mesh = pyvista.Plane() >>> mesh.point_data.clear() >>> centers = mesh.cell_centers() >>> pl = pyvista.Plotter() >>> actor = pl.add_mesh(mesh, show_edges=True) >>> actor = pl.add_points(centers, render_points_as_spheres=True, ... color='red', point_size=20) >>> pl.show()
